  • 1.  Labels in MapInfo 64 bit

    Posted 03-20-2025 23:12

    Hi, I just came across another glitch in MapInfo 64 bit (compare with 32 bit) that needs clarify and fixing.

    So having different colour labels has been pretty easy to change bulk in MapInfo 32 bit, but it seems to not be working the same way in M apInfo 64 bit.

    Example:

    MapInfo 64 bit Labels (I have 3 different colours as shown below - red, green and yelllow ) and would like to bulk make them Italic, BUT when I select all from this table, Text style does not recognise different colours at all.  

    A screenshot of a computer AI-generated content may be incorrect.

    MapInfo 32 bit- 32 bit does recognise the mixed colours and will apply changes from Bold to Italic at once.

    A screenshot of a computer AI-generated content may be incorrect.

    Are you able to clarify this and possibly fix the issue, please?

    Cheers

    Teddy

    Hey Teddy

    I just tried to reproduce this in MapInfo Pro v2023.1. Here, I do get the Mixed value in the Text Style dialog when I select 3 labels with different background colors.

    I also tried Halo which also worked
    I was using automatic labels that I had just created for a point layer. They hadn't been saved to a workspace, not that I think this would make any difference.
    Also, these are labels, not text objects.
    What version are you on?

    Hi Peter,

    Thank you so much for your quick attention and reply

     

    Try saving the labels in it's own table and try again, the auto labels is a different story itself 😊.

    I have very good reason having the labels in a separate table rather than just in the auto label.

    Let me know if that works for you,

    Cheers

    Teddy

    I used the Labeler tool to save my labels into a new table.

    This was open automatically. I then made the layer editable, selected three text objects with different background colors, and showed the Text Style dialog via the Style dropdown in the Create group on the Spatial tab.

    I still get the same though.

    OK, I am talking about Text objects, and also tested on the MapInfo Pro v2023.1. and same issue.

    Is it possible to change this?

     

    Cheers

    Hey

    Mine are also text objects. As it works for me but not for you, I think it may be the data that somehow is different.

    Would be willing to share the table? If so, send it to my email: peter.moller@precisely.com.

    Feel free to reach out to our tech support. They can arrange a screen-sharing session with you to troubleshoot.

    No worries Peter,

     

    I will first test on another file myself and if no good will email data to support or organise screen share,

     

    Have a great weekend and thank you very much for your quick replies and trying hard to resolve issues.

     

    Cheers

    Teddy
